Spring Wildflower Hike

April 16, 2023 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Free

Join the Sleeping Giant Park Association for a guided hike about early spring wildflowers, led by SGPA Board Member and US Forest Service Scientist, Chris Fagan. Participants will learn how to identify some of the Giant’s ephemeral wildflowers, and the incredible ways they have evolved to thrive in the early spring.

Registration is required, and will be limited to 30 hikers. Please register each hiker separately. There will be a wait list so please cancel if you find that you cannot attend. If cancelled due to weather, you will be contacted by email that morning.

>> REGISTER HERE <<

This will be an easy to moderate hike, 2 hours or so with stops for discussion. Participants should dress appropriately for the weather and wear comfortable, supportive shoes with good traction. A day pack with snacks, water, sunscreen and any other essentials is recommended.

Out of consideration for other participants, dogs are not permitted on SGPA hikes. This hike leaves from the kiosk at the park’s main entrance at 1pm. Please arrive 15 minutes early.

For additional information about this or other hikes, please contact SGPA’s hiking programs manager at [email protected].
